BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Rayonier Inc. and its subsidiaries (Rayonier or the Company) reflect all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, the financial position and the cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of certain estimates by management in determining the amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. There are risks inherent in estimating, and therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates. For a full description of the Companys significant accounting policies, please refer to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.

New Accounting Standards

In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities . This Interpretation applies to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003, and to variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. It also applies in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, to variable interest entities in which an enterprise held a variable interest that it acquired on or before January 31, 2003. The Company adopted this Interpretation on July 1, 2003. The Company does not have any unconsolidated variable interests that constitute a majority variable interest requiring consolidation, and as a result, there was no impact on the Companys financial condition, results of operations or cash flows upon adoption.

In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities . This statement amends SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities , for certain decisions made by the Board as part of the Derivatives Implementation Group process and to incorporate clarifications of the definitions of a derivative. SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts modified or entered into after June 30, 2003 and hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The Company adopted the standard, which is not expected to have any impact on the Companys financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, effective July 1, 2003.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity . This statement establishes standards for classifying and measuring certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. The statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company has not entered into or modified any financial instruments with characteristics outlined in the statement. The Company adopted the standard, which is not expected to have any impact on the Companys financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, effective July 1, 2003.

Reclassifications

Certain items in prior years condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

INCENTIVE STOCK PLANS

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation utilizing the intrinsic value based method under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB No. 25), Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees . The 1994 Rayonier Incentive Stock Plan (the 1994 Plan) provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance shares and restricted stock, subject to certain limitations.

A provision in the Companys original agreement to purchase the East Coast property from the New Zealand government requires the Company, in the event of a sale, to guarantee five years of Crown Forest license obligations commencing 2002, currently estimated at $1.7 million per year. However, the purchaser is the primary obligor and as such, has posted a performance bond with the New Zealand government.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company is exposed to various market risks, including changes in foreign exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. The Companys objective is to partially mitigate the economic impact of these market risks. Derivatives are used, as noted below, in accordance with policies and procedures approved by the Finance Committee of the Board of Directors and are managed by a senior executive committee, whose responsibilities include initiating, managing and monitoring resulting exposures. The Company does not enter into such financial instruments for trading purposes.

In the Companys New Zealand timber operations and at its New Zealand medium density fiberboard (MDF) manufacturing facility, certain normal operating expenses, including salaries and wages, wood purchases, contractor and license fees, care and maintenance of timberlands and other production costs incurred in manufacturing MDF, are denominated in New Zealand dollars. Rayonier hedges U.S./New Zealand dollar currency rate risk with respect to these operating expenditures (cash flow hedges).

In the Companys Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 gains of approximately $0.5 million and $1.2 million, respectively, were recorded on foreign currency contracts primarily reflecting realized gains on contracts that matured, plus the time value changes for outstanding contracts. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, the realized gains recorded were $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The Company has mark-to-market unrealized after-tax gains on foreign currency contracts of approximately $0.7 million in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI) in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet recorded as of June 30, 2003. When the forecasted transactions come to fruition and are recorded, the amounts in AOCI are reclassified to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The Company expects to reclassify the AOCI amount into earnings during the next eleven months.

At June 30, 2003, the Company held foreign currency forward contracts maturing through May 2004 totaling a notional value of $8.0 million. The largest notional amount of contracts outstanding during the first six months of 2003 totaled $10.2 million.

In March 2002, the Company entered into an interest rate swap on $50 million of 6.15 percent fixed rate notes payable maturing in February 2004. The swap converts interest payments from the fixed rate to six month LIBOR plus 2.265 percent. The interest rate swap qualifies as a fair value hedge under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities . As such, the net effect from the interest rate swap is recorded as interest expense. The swap agreement settles every May 15 and November 15, until maturity. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 the swap agreement reduced the Companys interest expense by $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively. Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 was reduced by $0.3 million from the interest rate swap. Based upon current interest rates for similar transactions, the fair value of the interest rate swap at June 30, 2003, resulted in an asset of approximately $0.9 million and a corresponding increase in debt. As of June 30, 2002, the interest rate swap resulted in an asset of $0.8 million and a corresponding increase in debt.

On April 9, 2003, the Companys wholly owned subsidiary, Rayonier Timberlands Operating Company, L.P. (RTOC), entered into an interest rate swap on $40 million of 8.288 percent fixed rate notes payable maturing on December 31, 2007. The swap converts interest payments from the fixed rate to six month LIBOR plus 4.99 percent and qualifies as a fair value

hedge under SFAS No. 133. As such, the net effect from the interest rate swap is recorded as interest expense. During the three months ended June 30, 2003, this swap agreement reduced the Companys interest expense by $0.2 million. Based upon current interest rates for similar transactions, the fair value of the interest rate swap at June 30, 2003, resulted in an asset of approximately $1.1 million and a corresponding increase in debt.

The Company periodically enters into commodity forward contracts to fix fuel oil costs at its Performance Fibers mills. The forward contracts partially mitigate the risk of a change in Performance Fibers margins resulting from an increase or decrease in fuel oil costs. The Company does not enter into commodity forwards for trading or speculative purposes. In February 2003, the Company entered into contracts that fixed 90,000 barrels of fuel oil at $24.90 for the second quarter of 2003 and 60,000 barrels at $22.82 for the third quarter of 2003. This represents approximately 50 percent and 30 percent of the Companys second and third quarter estimated fuel oil consumption, respectively. The mark to market adjustment on the contracts outstanding as of June 30, 2003 was negligible.

In July 2003, the Company entered into another forward commodity contract that fixed 30,000 barrels of fuel oil at $21.55 for the fourth quarter of 2003, which represents approximately 20 percent of the Companys estimated fourth quarter consumption. None of the Companys fuel oil contracts qualify for hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133 and are required to be marked to market with any resulting gain or loss recorded in Other Operating Income/(Expense).

GUARANTEES

The Company issues financial guarantees to provide credit support for some creditors in case of default and to serve as collateral for certain self-insurance programs that the Company maintains. As of June 30, 2003, the following were outstanding:

	Maximum Potential Payment	Carrying Amount of Liability
Standby letters of credit (1)	$ 76,534	$ 61,410
Guarantees (2)	6,769
Surety bonds (3)	13,380	680
Total	$ 96,683	$ 62,090

(1) Approximately $62 million of the standby letters of credit serve as credit support for industrial revenue bonds. The remaining letters of credit support various insurance coverages, primarily workers compensation and pollution requirements. These letters of credit expire at various dates during 2003 and 2004 and are typically rolled over as required.

(2) In conjunction with the sale of the New Zealand East Coast timber operations in 2002, the Company guaranteed five years of Crown Forest license obligations expiring in 2007, estimated at $1.7 million per year (see Note 6- Discontinued Operations ). The buyer of the property is the primary obligor and has posted a performance bond with the New Zealand government.

(3) The Company has issued surety bonds primarily to secure timber in the State of Washington as well as to provide collateral for the Companys workers compensation self-insurance program in that state. These surety bonds expire at various dates during 2003 and 2004 and are renewed as required.

CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, Rayonier may become liable with respect to pending and threatened litigation and environmental and other matters. The following updates or repeats commentary included in the Companys 2002 Annual Report filed on Form 10-K/A.

Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in various legal actions, including those involving environmental matters that are discussed more fully in Note 10 - Reserves for Dispositions and Discontinued Operations . While the ultimate results of these legal actions and related claims cannot be determined, based on discussions with legal counsel the Company does not expect that such actions and claims will have a material adverse effect on the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In December 2001, the United States commenced a lawsuit against the Company in the United States District Court for the Western Division of Washington to recover costs allegedly incurred by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) beginning in 1997 to conduct an Expanded Site Investigation and oversight at the Companys Port Angeles mill site. The EPA currently claims in excess of $3.0 million in such costs. Rayonier is challenging the EPAs authority to recover portions of these costs, as well as the validity of the amount spent. The Company believes that the ultimate outcome will not have a material adverse impact on the Companys financial position, liquidity or results of operations, and that its reserves at June 30, 2003 adequately include the probable costs to be incurred upon the ultimate resolution of the dispute.

Between 1985 and 1995, the Company sent contaminated soil excavated in connection with the cleanup of various closed wood processing sites to a third-party processor for recycling. The processing facility closed in 1995 and is the subject of a variety of environmental related charges by the EPA and the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality. In dispute is disposal liability for approximately 150,000 tons of recycled material from Company sites. This material is still owned and retained by the processor. A consent decree was entered in 1998 approving sale of the processing facility and assumption by the buyer of responsibility for movement of all remaining recycled material to a landfill. The parties were unable to complete the sale and the consent decree was vacated in May 2002. As a result, the status of the sale of the facility and ultimate responsibility for removal and disposal of the recycled material on-site are now uncertain. There are numerous possible outcomes that could determine the Companys ultimate liability, if any. The Company believes that reserves at June 30, 2003 adequately include the probable costs to be incurred upon the ultimate resolution of the dispute.

Environmental Matters

Rayonier is subject to stringent environmental laws and regulations concerning air emissions, water discharges and waste disposal. Such environmental laws and regulations include the Federal Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act. The Company closely monitors all of its environmental responsibilities, together with trends in environmental laws and believes that the Company is in compliance with current environmental requirements. It is the opinion of management that expenditures over the next 10 years will be required in the area of environmental compliance. During 1997, the EPA finalized its Cluster Rules governing air emissions but, due to the specialty nature of Rayoniers Performance Fibers products and operations, the agency postponed finalizing water discharge rules and certain air emissions rules governing the Companys Performance Fibers mills. The Company continues to work with the EPA to establish such rules for these mills, but the timing and costs associated with such rulemaking are uncertain. In the opinion of management, future capital costs associated with existing environmental rules will not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Federal, state and local laws and regulations intended to protect threatened and endangered species, as well as wetlands and waterways, limit and may prevent timber harvesting, road building and other activities on the Companys timberlands. Over the past several years, the harvest of timber on private lands in the State of Washington has been restricted as a result of the listing of several species of birds and fish under the Endangered Species Act. The Company, through industry groups, has worked with the State of Washington to implement workable protective measures with respect to several endangered species. The effect has been to restrict harvesting on portions of the Companys Washington timberlands. The Company has taken account of these restrictions in its harvest plans. Such efforts are ongoing and, in the opinion of management, will not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations. Additionally, a number of environmental groups have filed suit in both federal and state courts challenging various aspects of existing and proposed state and federal regulations. This litigation is not expected to have a material impact on Rayoniers annual harvest volume.

Other Contingencies

On February 22, 2001, the Company received a notice of proposed disallowance from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), arising from an issue in dispute regarding the Companys 1996-1997 federal tax returns, which could have resulted in an additional tax liability of $28.3 million. The Company had been discussing this issue with the IRS since 1999, and in the first quarter of 2003 accepted a proposal from the IRS (the Settlement Initiative) in order to expedite the resolution of the matter. Under the Settlement Initiative the maximum disallowance was set at a 90 percent level. Accordingly, the Company adjusted its estimated first quarter 2003 tax provision to recognize a tax benefit of $2.3 million at a 10 percent minimum allowance threshold. In April 2003, the Company deposited $6.4 million with the IRS, representing $3.7 million in tax and $2.7 million in interest, in anticipation of audit settlements pertaining to this issue. Final resolution of this matter is not likely to occur until after 2003.

RESERVES FOR DISPOSITIONS AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

The Companys dispositions and discontinued operations include its Port Angeles, WA, mill, which was closed on February 28, 1997; its wholly owned subsidiary, Southern Wood Piedmont Company (SWP), which ceased operations in 1989; its Eastern Research Division (ERD), which ceased operations in 1981; and other miscellaneous assets held for disposition. SWP has been designated a potentially responsible party (PRP), or has had other claims made against it, under the U.S. Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act and/or comparable state statutes at various sites where the Company no longer operates, including 10 former wood processing sites.

During the first six months of 2003, expenditures of $4.2 million for monitoring and remediation activities were charged to the reserves. An analysis of activity in the reserves for dispositions and discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and the year ended December 31, 2002, is as follows:

Balance, January 1,	June 30, 2003 — $ 162,197	$	168,704
Expenditures charged to reserves	(4,235	)	(9,241	)
Additions to reserves			2,734
Balance, end of period	157,962		162,197
Less: Current portion	(13,316	)	(15,902	)
Non-current portion of reserves	$ 144,646	$	146,295

Rayonier has identified three SWP sites (Augusta, GA, Spartanburg, SC, and East Point, GA) and Port Angeles, WA as individually material and separate disclosure was presented in the Companys 2002 Form 10-K/A. There have not been any significant changes in these sites reserve requirements for the six months ended June 30, 2003, and therefore separate disclosure is not presented herein. For an analysis of the reserve activity for the two years ended December 31, 2002 and a brief description of these individually material sites, see the Companys 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, Note 12 to Consolidated Financial Statements.

In addition, the Company is exposed to the risk of reasonably possible additional losses in excess of the established reserves for PRP sites. As of June 30, 2003, this amount is estimated at $7 million and arises from uncertainty over the effectiveness of treatments, additional contamination that may be discovered, changes in laws, regulations and administrative interpretations and in environmental remediation technology. Excluded from this estimate are two sites for which the Company is not able to determine reasonably possible additional losses. Evaluation of these sites is in preliminary stages and sufficient data is not available to determine the extent of contamination, if any, and necessary remediation.

Rayonier currently estimates that expenditures for environmental remediation and monitoring costs for all dispositions will total approximately $14 million and $12 million in 2003 and 2004, respectively. Such costs will be charged against Rayoniers reserves for estimated environmental obligations, which include monitoring and remediation costs. The Company believes such reserves are sufficient for costs expected to be incurred over the next 20 to 25 years with respect to the dispositions and discontinued operations. The amount of actual future environmental costs is dependent on the outcome of negotiations with federal and state agencies and may also be affected by new laws, regulations and administrative interpretations, and changes in environmental remediation technology. Based on information currently available, the Company does not believe that any future changes in estimates, if necessary, would materially affect its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

As of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 Rayonier had $8.0 million of receivables, net of reserves, from insurance claims included in Other Assets. Such receivables represent the Companys claim for reimbursements in connection with property damage settlements relating to SWPs discontinued wood processing operations and the ERD.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of Rayoniers consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the Companys assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company bases these estimates and assumptions on historical data and trends, current fact patterns, expectations and other sources of information it believes are reasonable. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different conditions. For a full description of the Companys critical accounting policies, see the Management Discussion and Analysis in the 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.

Segment Information

Rayonier operates in three reportable segments: Performance Fibers, Timber and Land, and Wood Products. Performance Fibers includes two major product lines, Cellulose Specialties and Absorbent Materials. The Timber and Land segments strategies include buying and managing timberlands, selling timber, timberland and certain high-value timberlands (known as higher and better use, or HBU land) to be used for conservation, real estate development and large tract preservation. For presentation purposes, the Company classifies its sales activities into Timber sales and Land sales. Timber sales include all activities that relate to the harvesting of timber, while Land sales include the sale of all timberland tracts, including those designated as HBU. The Wood Products segment includes lumber and MDF. The Companys remaining operations are combined and reported in a category called Other Operations as permitted by SFAS No. 131 and include the purchasing and harvesting of timber from third parties, selling logs (timber trading) and trading wood products.

Results of Operations

On April 14, 2003, the Company closed a large land sale consisting of 8,834 acres. The $42 million sale contributed $39 million to operating income, and $25 million to net income or $0.59 per share in the second quarter. The large land sale is referred to as the Matanzas Marsh land sale.

Table of Contents

Sales and Operating Income

Sales and operating income for the second quarter of 2003 of $296 million and $54 million, respectively, were $27 and $14 million above the comparable period in the prior year. The sales increase was primarily due to the Matanzas Marsh land sale and higher performance fibers volume. Operating income improved mainly due to the large land sale and stronger absorbent materials and New Zealand timber prices.

Sales and operating income of $562 million and $73 million for the six months ended June 2003 were $24 million and $6 million above the same period in the prior year, respectively. The sales increase was primarily due to higher land sales and stronger absorbent materials volume. Operating income increased principally due to higher land sales partially offset by increased performance fibers manufacturing costs and weaker U.S. timber and lumber prices.

Performance Fibers

Sales for the second quarter of 2003 were $132 million, $8 million above the prior year second quarter due to higher volumes and prices. Operating income for the second quarter of 2003 of $3 million was $8 million below the prior year due to higher manufacturing costs. Manufacturing costs increased due to higher hardwood chip costs as a result of weather-related supply shortages, increased chemical and maintenance costs and an equipment outage at our Jesup, GA mill.

Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003, were $261 million, $7 million above the same period in the prior year due to higher absorbent materials volume and cellulose specialties prices partly offset by lower absorbent material prices. Operating income of $2 million was $16 million below the same period in the prior year mainly due to higher manufacturing costs primarily resulting from increased hardwood chip, chemical and energy costs and an equipment outage at our Jesup, GA mill.

Cellulose Specialties

Sales of $92 million for the second quarter of 2003 were $5 million above the prior year principally due to a volume increase of 5 percent and a favorable product mix. Prices remained relatively stable. Sales of $179 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, were $2 million above the same period last year, primarily due to a 1 percent price increase due to product mix, while volume was essentially unchanged.

Absorbent Materials

Sales of $40 million for the second quarter of 2003 were $3 million above the prior year due to volume and price increases of 5 percent and 3 percent, respectively. The favorable price variance is principally due to a $30 per metric ton second quarter fluff pulp average price increase, which resulted in a $15 per metric ton price increase over last year. During the quarter, supply shortages caused fluff pulp prices to increase. Sales of $82 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, were $6 million above the same period in the prior year resulting from a 9 percent volume increase, partly offset by a 2 percent price decline.

Timber and Land

Sales of $92 million and operating income of $59 million for the second quarter of 2003 were $34 million and $28 million above the prior year second quarter, respectively, primarily due to the Matanzas Marsh land sale partly offset by lower timber sales volume and prices.

Sales and operating income of $153 million and $85 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, were $33 million and $24 million, respectively, above the same period in the prior year. These increases were principally due to higher land sales partly offset by lower Northwest U.S. timber volume and U.S. timber prices.

Timber

Sales for the second quarter of 2003 were $39 million, $7 million below the prior year second quarter due to decreased timber volume in all operating areas and lower U.S. timber prices partly offset by higher New Zealand timber prices. Operating income of $12 million for the second quarter of 2003 was $9 million below the prior year primarily due to lower volume and prices. In the Southeast U.S., markets continued to be weak causing the Companys average pine stumpage prices to decline 13 percent compared to the prior year second quarter. Wet weather in 2003 also continued to make harvesting difficult causing pine volume to decrease 1 percent and hardwood volume to decrease 29 percent. In the Northwest U.S. sales volume of stumpage and delivered logs was 17 percent below prior year reflecting weaker market

Table of Contents

conditions. Average stumpage prices fell 24 percent below the corresponding prior year period. New Zealand experienced significantly higher prices due to the stronger New Zealand dollar on stable domestic stumpage prices and volumes.

Sales of $82 million and operating income of $28 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, were $6 million and $13 million below the same period in the prior year, respectively. These decreases were principally due to average price declines in the Northwest U.S. and Southeast U.S. of 2 percent and 11 percent, respectively, along with lower volume partly offset by a 50 percent increase in New Zealand average prices.

Land

Sales for the second quarter of 2003 of $53 million and operating income of $48 million increased $40 million and $37 million, respectively, from the prior year second quarter. Sales of $71 million and operating income of $57 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, were $39 million and $37 million, respectively, above the same period in the prior year. Both the second quarter and year-to-date variances are primarily due to the Matanzas Marsh land sale. Sales and operating income can fluctuate materially from period to period due to the timing of closing real estate transactions.

Wood Products

Sales for the second quarter of 2003 were $31 million, $7 million below the prior year second quarter, while an operating loss of $2 million was unfavorable compared to prior year by $2 million. Domestic lumber markets continued to weaken due to an oversupply of product from U.S. mills and Canadian imports, despite Canadian import tariffs. The Companys sales volume was 14 percent below prior year second quarter as a result of log shortages and prices were 12 percent below. During the quarter, wet weather conditions reduced the volume of available saw logs, which put pressure on fiber prices, causing the Company to limit its purchases of saw logs for lumber production. MDF sales volumes and prices improved slightly compared to the prior year second quarter; however, manufacturing costs were adversely impacted by the stronger New Zealand dollar.

Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 of $61 million were $11 million below the same period in the prior year. The operating loss of $6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, was $4 million unfavorable compared to the loss in the same period in the prior year. These unfavorable variances were principally due to lower lumber volume and prices of 13 percent and 12 percent, respectively, and higher MDF manufacturing costs as a result of the stronger New Zealand dollar.

Other Operations

Sales for the second quarter of 2003 were $41 million, $12 million below the prior year second quarter. The operating loss of $1 million was $1 million unfavorable to prior year. New Zealand trading operations were adversely impacted by the weaker U.S. dollar resulting in higher procurement and ocean freight costs. Australasian log markets improved slightly during the second quarter but remained oversupplied.

Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 of $88 million were $13 million below the same period in the prior year while the operating loss of $1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, was unchanged.

Corporate

Corporate expenses of $8 million for the second quarter of 2003 and $13 million for the six months ended June 30 were $3 million and $1 million above the comparable prior year periods, respectively. The increase was primarily due to higher incentive compensation and other administrative expenses.

Intersegment Eliminations and Other

Income of $3 million for the second quarter 2003 was essentially at the same level as second quarter 2002, while income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 of $6 million was $3 million above the same period in the prior year. The variance for the six-month period was mainly due to favorable balance sheet related foreign exchange translation as the New Zealand dollar appreciated versus the U.S. dollar.

Table of Contents

Other Income / Expense

Interest expense of $12 million in the second quarter of 2003 and $25 million in the first six months of 2003 was $3 million and $6 million below the comparable prior year periods, respectively, primarily due to lower debt. Interest and miscellaneous income of $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2003 was $0.5 million higher than the second quarter of 2002, primarily due to a $0.5 million Nassau County, Florida bond call premium paid in the second quarter of 2002. Interest and miscellaneous income of $1 million in the first six months of 2003 was $1 million above the first six months of 2002, primarily due to $0.8 million of interest income relating to the settlement of pre-1994 tax audit issues received in the second quarter of 2003, and the bond call premium paid in 2002.

The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2003 was 24.6 percent compared to 27.8 percent for the prior year second quarter. The lower rate is attributable to increased foreign and other tax credits and the disproportionately high contribution to expected annual income in the second quarter of 2003. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2003, was 20.0 percent compared to 28.0 percent for the same period in the prior year. The lower rate is due to lower taxes on foreign operations and the tax benefit arising from audit negotiations in the first quarter of 2003. The Companys effective tax rate continued to be below the U.S. statutory levels primarily due to lower taxes on foreign operations and research and development tax credits.

Income from Continuing Operations

Income from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2003 was $32 million, or $0.74 per share, compared to $18 million, or $0.41 per share for the prior year second quarter. The increase is primarily due to the Matanzas Marsh land sale, stronger absorbent materials and New Zealand timber prices, decreased interest expense and a lower effective tax rate partly offset by higher performance fibers manufacturing costs. Income from continuing operations for the first six months of 2003 of $40 million, or $0.94 per share, was $13 million, or $0.32 per share above the same period in the prior year. The increase was principally due to higher land sales, lower interest expense and a favorable effective tax rate partially offset by higher performance fibers manufacturing costs.

Income (loss) from Discontinued Operations

The Company had no income or expense from discontinued operations in the second quarter of 2003, compared to a loss of $1.3 million or $0.03 per share in the second quarter 2002, when the sale of the New Zealand East Coast timber operations occurred. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, there was no income or expense from discontinued operations compared to a loss of $1 million, or $0.02 per share in the same period in 2002.

Other Items

The Company expects third quarter 2003 earnings to be lower than second quarter primarily due to the adverse impact of weather-related hardwood chip shortages, seasonally lower Northwest U.S. timber volume, and the absence of a major land sale similar to Matanzas Marsh.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow

Cash flow provided by operating activities from continuing operations of $109 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, was $22 million below the same period in the prior year, primarily due to higher working capital requirements, a $16 million tax deposit, and a $10 million pension fund contribution, partially offset by higher operating income. Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations financed capital expenditures of $33 million, dividends of $21 million and debt reduction of $32 million. Cash flow used for financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was significantly less than the prior year period due to lower net debt repayments partly offset by lower employee stock options exercised. Also during this period, the Company paid $0.2 million in lieu of fractional common shares in conjunction with the Companys stock split on June 12, while in the prior year the Company repurchased 22,900 of its common shares for $1.1 million. At June 30, 2003, the Company had cash equivalents (marketable securities with maturities at date of acquisition of 90 days and less) of $41 million, $10 million above the amount at June 30, 2002.

In April 2003, the Company deposited $16 million with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) representing $11 million in tax and $5 million in interest, in anticipation of audit settlements. In January 2003, the Company contributed $10 million to its pension plans and anticipates an additional contribution of $1.6 million later this year. The Company also anticipates an increase of $5 million in environmental spending for 2003 versus 2002 and purchasing in August 2003, $6 million of machinery and equipment that was previously leased.

The discussion below is presented to enhance the readers understanding of Rayoniers ability to generate cash, its liquidity and its ability to satisfy rating agency and creditor requirements. This information includes two measures of financial results:

Earnings from Continuing Operations before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization (EBITDA), and Free Cash Flow. These measures are not defined by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and the discussion of EBITDA and Free Cash Flow is not intended to conflict with or change any of the GAAP disclosures. Management considers these measures to be important to estimate the enterprise and shareholder values of the Company as a whole and of its core segments, and for allocating capital resources. In addition, analysts, investors and creditors use these measures when analyzing the financial condition and cash generating ability of the Company. EBITDA is defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission; however, Free Cash Flow as defined may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure of operating cash generating capacity of the Company. For the second quarter of 2003, EBITDA was $94 million, $16 million above the second quarter last year primarily due to the Matanzas Marsh land sale, which contributed $39 million. EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was $156 million, $6 million above the prior year period.

Below is a reconciliation of Cash Provided by Operating Activities of Continuing Operations to EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 (millions of dollars):

	Three months ended June 30, — 2003	2002

Working capital increase (decrease)	23.0		(14.2	)
Other balance sheet changes	(6.4	)	(4.7	)
EBITDA	$ 155.6	$	149.5

There is one other non-cash expense critical to the economics of our Timber and Land core business: the non-cash cost basis of land sold. EBITDA plus the non-cash cost basis of land sold for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, totaled $95 million and $79 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, totaled $160 million and $153 million, respectively.

Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP measure of cash generated during a period that was available for discretionary capital expenditures, increasing dividends above the prior year level, repurchasing the Companys common shares and/or reducing debt within the period. The Company defines Free Cash Flow as cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations less net custodial capital spending, dividends at the prior year level, required debt repayments and the tax benefit on the exercise of stock options. Net custodial capital spending, a non-GAAP measure, (defined as capital expenditures, net of retirements, required to maintain the Companys current earnings level over the cycle and to keep facilities and equipment in safe and reliable condition as well as in compliance with regulatory requirements) is important to properly evaluate cash requirements, to forecast potential uses of cash and for use in valuation models. The Company has a system in place to classify capital spending projects as either custodial or discretionary prior to approval and to track expenditures accordingly; however, the determination of discretionary versus custodial spending still requires some level of management judgment and such limitation should be considered when using this measure. Free Cash Flow for the six months ended June 30, 2003, was $57 million, $19 million below the prior year period. The decrease resulted from higher working capital requirements, a $16 million tax deposit, and a $10 million pension contribution, partially offset by higher operating earnings. The Free Cash Flow generated in the first six months of 2003 is not necessarily indicative of the Free Cash Flow that may be generated in future periods.

Table of Contents

Below is reconciliation of Cash Provided by Operating Activities of Continuing Operations to Free Cash Flow and of Capital Expenditures, net of sales and retirements to Custodial Capital Spending, net for the respective periods (millions of dollars):

	Six months ended June 30, — 2003	2002
Cash provided by Operating Activities of Continuing Operations	$ 108.8	$	130.5
Custodial capital spending, net	(29.2	)	(28.1	)
Dividends at prior year level	(20.1	)	(19.9	)
Required debt repayments,*	(1.5	)	(3.7	)
Tax benefit on exercise of stock options	(0.8	)	(2.4	)
Free Cash Flow	$ 57.2	$	76.4
Capital Expenditures, net of sales and retirements	$ 32.7	$	33.6
Discretionary capital expenditures	(3.5	)	(5.5	)
Custodial Capital Spending, net	$ 29.2	$	28.1

The required repayments represent debt that matured and was paid during the period. In addition to the required payments, the Company made discretionary debt repayments of $30.0 million and $80.0 million in the first six months of 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Debt

At June 30, 2003, debt was $622 million, $31 million below the December 31, 2002 level. At June 30, 2003 the debt to capital ratio was 45.8 percent, 2.1 percentage points below the December 31, 2002 level.

The Company has a revolving credit agreement with a group of banks that provide the Company with unsecured credit facilities totaling $170 million. The revolving credit facilities are used for direct borrowings and in the past, as credit support for a commercial paper program. As of June 30, 2003, the Company had $170 million of available borrowings under its facility, which expires in November 2004. In connection with the financing of the Smurfit timberland acquisition in 1999, Rayonier Timberlands Operating Company, L.P. (RTOC), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an agreement with a group of banks that provided RTOC with revolving credit facilities totaling $75 million and a term loan of $200 million. The balance of the term loan of $30 million at December 31, 2002 was paid during the first quarter of 2003. RTOC had $75 million of available borrowings as of June 30, 2003 under the revolving credit portion, which expires in October 2004.

In conjunction with the Companys $170 million revolving credit facility, certain covenants must be met, including ratios based on the financial institutions own definition of EBITDA (Covenant EBITDA). Covenant EBITDA as defined by the covenant in the bank financing agreement consists of earnings from continuing operations before the cumulative effect of accounting changes and provision for dispositions, income taxes, interest expense, depreciation, depletion, amortization and the non-cash costs of timberland and real estate sales. In addition, there are covenant requirements in effect for RTOC relating to the ratio of consolidated cash flow available for fixed charges to consolidated fixed charges and the ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated cash flow available for fixed charges. The covenants listed below are calculated on a trailing 12-month basis.

The most restrictive long-term debt covenants in effect for Rayonier as of June 30, 2003, are as follows:

	Covenant Requirement	Actual ratio at June 30, 2003	Favorable (Unfavorable)
Covenant EBITDA to consolidated interest expense should not be less than	2.50 to 1	5.70 to 1	3.20
Total debt to Covenant EBITDA should not exceed	4.00 to 1	1.93 to 1	2.07
RTOC consolidated cash flow available for fixed charges to RTOC consolidated fixed charges should not be less than	1.65 to 1	3.05 to 1	1.40
RTOC consolidated debt to RTOC consolidated cash flow available for fixed charges may not exceed	4.25 to 1	2.25 to 1	2.00

In addition to the covenants listed above, the credit agreements include customary covenants that limit the incurrence of debt, the disposition of assets and the making of certain payments between RTOC and Rayonier. The Company is currently in compliance with all of these covenants and does not anticipate non-compliance in the future.

Table of Contents

On July 22, 2003, the Company filed a Form S-3 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to issue up to $500 million of new public debt or equity securities. Once effective, this registration statement will replace the Companys existing $150 million shelf registration. Management believes that internally generated funds, combined with available external financing as described above, will enable Rayonier to fund capital expenditures, repayments of indebtedness, future acquisitions, dividends, share repurchases, working capital, and other liquidity needs for the foreseeable future.

During the second quarter of 2002, the Company guaranteed five years of Crown forest timberland lease obligations in conjunction with the sale of its New Zealand East Coast operations. As of June 30, 2003, the remaining obligation is estimated at $1.7 million per year. See Note 6 - Discontinued Operations in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the guarantee. No material changes in other guarantees or financial instruments such as letters of credit and surety bonds occurred during the first six months of 2003.

Segment EBITDA

EBITDA (defined above) is also used for evaluating segment cash return on investment, allocating resources and for valuation purposes. EBITDA by segment is a critical valuation measure used by the Chief Operating Decision Maker, existing shareholders and potential shareholders to measure how management is performing relative to the assets with which they have been entrusted. EBITDA by segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was as follows (millions of dollars):

	Three Months Ended June 30, — 2003	2002		2003		2002
EBITDA *
Performance Fibers	$ 22.3	$	30.6	$	39.8	$	55.7
Timber and Land	76.1		47.3		121.7		98.4
Wood Products	0.8		3.0		0.5		5.3
Other Operations	(0.8	)	0.6		(0.7	)	(0.8	)
Corporate and other	(4.6	)	(3.2	)	(5.7	)	(9.1	)
Total	$ 93.8	$	78.3	$	155.6	$	149.5

Item 5(a) provides a reconciliation of Cash Provided by Operating Activities of Continuing Operations by segment, to EBITDA by segment for the three and six month periods presented above.

New Accounting Standards

In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. This statement amends SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities , for certain decisions made by the Board as part of the Derivatives Implementation Group process and to incorporate clarifications of the definitions of a derivative. SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts modified or entered into after June 30, 2003 and hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The Company adopted the standard, which is not expected to have any impact on the Companys financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, effective July 1, 2003.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market Risk

The Company is exposed to various market risks, including changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity prices. The Companys objective is to minimize the economic impact of these market risks. Derivatives are used in accordance with policies and procedures approved by the Finance Committee of the Board of Directors and are managed by a senior executive committee whose responsibilities include initiating, managing and monitoring resulting exposures. The Company does not enter into financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. See Note 7-Financial Instruments included in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The fair market value of the Companys long-term fixed interest rate debt is subject to interest rate risk; however, Rayonier intends to hold most of its debt until maturity. Rayonier periodically enters into interest rate swap agreements to manage its exposure to interest rate changes, or in back-to-back arrangements at the time debt is issued in order to cost effectively place the debt. These swaps involve the exchange of fixed and variable interest rate payments without exchanging principal amounts. At June 30, 2003, the Company had two interest rate swap agreements maturing in 2004 and 2007 that resulted in an asset with a fair market value of $2.0 million. Generally, the fair market value of fixed-interest rate debt will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise.

Most of Rayoniers revenues and expenses are U.S. dollar-denominated. However, the Company does have some risk within its New Zealand operation related to foreign currency pricing and costs and periodically enters into foreign currency forward contracts to partially hedge the risks of foreign currency fluctuations. At June 30, 2003, the Company held foreign currency contracts maturing through May 2004 totaling $8.0 million. The fair value of outstanding foreign currency contracts at June 30, 2003 was an asset of approximately $1.1 million. Market risk resulting from a hypothetical 4-cent change in the New Zealand dollar/U.S. dollar exchange rate on the outstanding foreign currency contracts amounts to an approximate change of $0.6 million in pre-tax income/loss.

The Company periodically enters into commodity forward contracts to fix certain fuel oil costs. The forward contracts partially mitigate the risk of a change in Performance Fibers margins resulting from an increase or decrease in fuel oil costs. The Company does not enter into commodity forwards for trading or speculative purposes. In February 2003, the Company entered into contracts that fixed 90,000 barrels of fuel oil at $24.90 for the second quarter of 2003 and 60,000 barrels at $22.82 for the third quarter of 2003. This represents approximately 50 percent and 30 percent of the Companys second and third quarter estimated fuel oil consumption, respectively. These contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133 and were marked to market resulting in a negligible increase in Other Operating Expense as of June 30, 2003. In July, 2003, the Company entered into a commodity forward contract that fixed 30,000 barrels of fuel oil at $21.55 for the fourth quarter of 2003. This represents approximately 20 percent of the Companys fourth quarter estimated fuel oil consumption. Consistent with the Companys other fuel oil contracts, this does not qualify for hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133 and will also be marked to market.

For a full description of the Companys market risk, please refer to Item 7, Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, in the 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.

Safe Harbor

Comments about market trends, anticipated earnings, expected pricing and volume levels, projected capital spending levels (including the expected costs of compliance with environmental regulations), sufficiency of reserves, availability of tax deductions and the ultimate effect of legal actions (including those involving environmental matters) are forward-looking and are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The following important factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements: changes in global market trends and world events; interest rate and currency movements; changes in capital markets and the resulting impact on returns on the Companys pension plan assets and certain stock-based incentive plans; fluctuations in demand for cellulose specialties, absorbent materials, timber and wood products; adverse weather conditions; changes in production costs for wood products and performance fibers, particularly for raw materials such as wood, energy and chemicals; unexpected delays in the closing of land sale transactions; and implementation or revision of governmental policies and regulations affecting the environment, import and export controls and taxes. For additional factors that could impact future results, please see the Companys 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

On August 4, 2003, the Companys disclosure committee met with the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer (the certifying officers) to evaluate the Companys disclosure controls and procedures. Based on such evaluation, the certifying officers concluded that, as of June 30, 2003, the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were well designed and effective in seeing that material information regarding the Company is promptly made available to senior management, including the certifying officers, in order to allow the Company to meet its reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in a timely manner. The Companys disclosure committee met with the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer again on August 14, 2003 to finalize disclosure in this Form 10-Q. The Companys disclosure committee also met with the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer on September 15, 2003 to review the amendments made to this Form 10Q/A.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2003 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

On February 22, 2001, the Company received a notice of proposed disallowance from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), arising from an issue in dispute regarding the Companys 1996 and 1997 federal tax returns, which could have resulted in an additional tax liability of $28.3 million. The Company had been discussing this issue with the IRS since 1999 and in the first quarter of 2003; it accepted a proposal from the IRS (the Settlement Initiative) in order to expedite the resolution of the matter. Under the Settlement Initiative the maximum disallowance was set at a 90 percent level. Accordingly, the Company adjusted its estimated first quarter 2003 tax provision to recognize a tax benefit of $2.3 million at a 10 percent minimum allowance threshold. Final resolution of this matter is not likely to occur until after 2003. As part of the $15.7 million in tax deposits made in April 2003, the Company deposited $6.4 million with the IRS, representing $3.7 million in tax and $2.7 million in interest, in anticipation of audit settlements pertaining to this issue.

In December 2001, the United States commenced a lawsuit against the Company in the United States District Court for the Western Division of Washington to recover costs allegedly incurred by EPA beginning in 1997 to conduct an Expanded Site Investigation and oversight at the Companys Port Angeles mill site. The EPA currently claims in excess of $3.0 million in such costs. Rayonier is challenging the EPAs authority to recover portions of these costs, as well as the validity of the amount spent. The Company believes that the ultimate outcome will not have a material adverse impact on the Companys financial position, liquidity or results of operations, and that its reserves at June 30, 2003 adequately include the probable costs to be incurred upon the ultimate resolution of the dispute.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

The Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company was held on May 15, 2003 (the Annual Meeting). At that meeting, three directors were elected as follows:
